Maintaining Your BlackArmor NAS 110 Server
BlackArmor® NAS 110 User Guide 43
Alternatively, you can set your BlackArmor NAS 110 server as a domain member. A domain is
a group of computers administered as a single unit from a central location.
When you add the BlackArmor server as a domain member, it is centrally managed by a
Windows domain controller, which provides another level of security when users attempt to
access the server. Users within the domain receive their own unique accounts and must be
authenticated to receive access.
The domain’s administrator must authorize the BlackArmor server as a domain member. You
must know the domain administrator’s user name and password to add your server to a
domain. See the BlackArmor Manager online help for instructions on adding the server as a
domain member.

Basic Hardware Safety and Maintenance
Follow these guidelines to keep your BlackArmor NAS 110 server operating properly. Failure
to do so may result in slower performance or loss of data.
• Always shut down and restart the server using BlackArmor Manager (for instructions,
refer to the BlackArmor Manager online Help) or by pressing the POWER button on the
back. Don’t just unplug it or shut it down from a power bar.
• Keep the server on a flat, level, stable horizontal surface. Keep it cool, keep it dry, and
don’t put anything on it or beside it that might block its vents and allow it to overheat.
• Clean the outside surfaces of the server with a damp cloth only (don’t use cleansers of
any kind), and unplug the server before you clean it to avoid possible electric shock.
• Don’t try to open or remove the outer case that houses the server.
• Call for professional service if:
• The server’s power cord becomes damaged.
• The server has liquid spilled onto it or is exposed to water.
• The server has been dropped or if the outer case becomes damaged.
• The server doesn’t operate normally even though you’re following all the operating
instructions properly.
